ESPN

Sep 17, 2019 · 2:28 PM EDT

The New York Jets suffered another blow at quarterback, announcing Tuesday that Trevor Siemian will be lost for the remainder of the season because of significant ligament damage in his left ankle.

Related players: Luke Falk, Sam Darnold

Fantasy Impact:

Falk will get the start Sunday against the Patriots. Faulk will be the third different QB to start in three games this season. Some good news, according to the story, is Darnold returned to the Jets' facility and is feeling much better. Best case for Darnold is Week 5 against the Eagles, the story said.

Sam Darnold (mononucleosis) officially out Monday

Jets on Twitter

Sep 14, 2019 · 10:06 PM EDT

Jets QB Sam Darnold is officially out of Monday’s game against the Browns as he recovers from mononucleosis.

Fantasy Impact:

This is just the formal announcement after the diagnosis was revealed earlier in the week. Darnold is expected to miss multiple games. The Jets have their bye in Week 4, so it’s possible Darnold only misses this week and next week against the Patriots, returning potentially in Week 5 against the Eagles. For the time being, Trevor Siemian will take the reins of the Jets offense.

Jets QB Sam Darnold (illness) missed practice again Friday. He has mononucleosis and is going to be out this week, at least. Trevor Siemian is in at quarterback. He has a career 59.3% completion percentage along with a 30:24 TD-to-INT ratio and a 6.8 YPA. The Jets could be worse off at quarterback, but Darnold's absence certainly hurts.

Jets WR Robby Anderson (calf) took full practice reps Thursday. Anderson should be fine to play given the full practice reps. He's dealing with a quarterback change since Sam Darnold came down with mono.

Sam Darnold could miss several weeks with mono.

Fantasy Impact:

Trevor Siemian will take over while Sam Darnold is out. This is a blow to all the Jets offensive players and a bump to every defense that gets to face Siemian.

Sam Darnold and the Jets offense showing 'significantly higher' pace

The Athletic

Jun 14, 2019 · 1:21 PM EDT

Each time Sam Darnold drops back, he has options on every level of the field. Darnold, who, like Alex Smith, doesn’t receive enough credit for his athleticism, runs his fair share of read options and has the choice of keeping it or not. This puts stress on the defense. The pace is significantly higher than under Chan Gailey, John Morton or Bates.

Also from Connor Hughes of The Athletic, "I came away incredibly impressed with both Darnold’s arm strength and accuracy. He threw three perfect bombs to Robby Anderson (once) and Quincy Enunwa (twice) at different times during the six media-open workouts."

Fantasy Impact:

This faster speed of play is good news for the entire Jets offense when it comes to fantasy ceilings, and most can currently be had for very cheap. Sam Darnold averaged 13.0 fantasy points last season over 13 games and should have no trouble besting that in his sophomore year in the league. He makes for a great value stack in best-ball leagues with WR Robby Anderson and TE Chris Herndon, or a late-round redraft QB that has solid potential to outperform his ADP.

Eagles QB Carson Wentz (back, out) missed practice all week and is out for Week 16. Nick Foles will start again this week. He put up a measly 9.3 fantasy points last week against the Rams, but he returns home to face a Texans defense that is tough to run on but vulnerable against the pass, yielding 253/2 to Sam Darnold, 399/2 to Andrew Luck, 397/1 to Baker Mayfield and 303/2 to Marcus Mariota in recent weeks.
